About MSSLX
Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. Inception Portfolio Class L is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in growth-oriented equity securities of small-capitalization companies. The fund utilizes a small growth investment style, focusing on both established and emerging U.S. companies believed to possess sustainable competitive advantages, robust business visibility, and strong financial profiles. Its portfolio is diversified but notably concentrated, with over half of assets typically allocated to its top ten holdings, which span sectors such as technology, consumer cyclical, and healthcare. Managed by an experienced investment team within Morgan Stanley Investment Management, the fund uses a bottom-up stock selection approach, aiming to identify individual companies with attractive risk/reward profiles.
